“It looks like it’s feelin’ a bit blue.” said Sebastian as he looked at the sea creature. Some sailors from The
Bucci named Bucky and Ben suggested to feed it some fish. They threw fish into the sea, but the sea
creature didn’t do anything with it!
“Maybe it wants to be friends?” suggested Zheng He as he jumped off the ship and patted the sea creature.

ship, bit by bit, as the sea creature followed. And that’s how both crews lived a great lifetime.

he spread kindness to people. Even if he sometimes needed to deal with nasty people of the more usual sort,
they can still make relationships once and for all. Zheng He, a kind person who will stay in our hearts and
will never ever be forgotten.
